Lindsey's Arranging On Tango In Night

[aleuzzi]

The arrangements on TITN were dreamed up by Lindsey and Christine, for the most part, more Lindsey than Chris, but her output was pretty important,as it was on every project they worked on together. But Lindsey's thumbprint is especially noticeable on the production choices--the use of certain "contemporary" synthesizers, the alteration of the vocals, both his and Christine's throughout to make a more "poppy" sound. Listen to Christine's voice on Tango and compare it to her voice on Mask three years later, or her solo album two years before: different worlds!

Interesting note: when Dan Perfect was talking about working with Christine on In The Meantime, he praised Christine's voice. "There it was, that beautiful instrument...she sounded like she did on the White album or Rumours, without any speeding up or mucking about with the voice in the studio." It seemed as if he were alluding to some of the FM production choices regarding her voice.
